The live view LCD was a big help in capturing this photo. I shifted into Liveview, tilted the LCD screen out and held the Sony Alpha A350 as high over my head as I could.
Using the tilt out LCD, I was able to frame this image of the deck and cockpit of the canoe. If I had used the optical viewfinder, I would not have had the height to show the deck area.
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely prefer using the traditional SLR mirror and ground glass. In cases like this, however, the the tilt-out LCD view is a great advantage.
